William F. Buckley, Jr. Has Died at 82

William F. Buckley, Jr. has died at age 82.

Now I feel a little bad that I republished this a couple days ago:  Two Years Ago Today on GINA COBB: Buckley Says U.S. Mission in Iraq Has Failed.

It goes without saying that Buckley made a major contribution to American political thought.  He was not a follower, but a leader -- and a great one.  Among his many achievements, Buckley founded National Review.  That's the place to go today for a terrific tribute to an amazing life.
